getting diagnosed with ADHD at 23 | *emotional* & tourettes+
Today I talk about getting diagnosed with adhd at 23. I feel like all of my prayers have been answered and having ADHD makes SO MUCH SENSE. I have Tourette Syndrome (as we all know) but I found out today that I have ADHD and as an adult with ADHD I've always been overlooked. This is such a relief to me because my executive functioning is TERRIBLE. It's literally executive dysfunction and I've struggled my whole life and TODAY I GOT ANSWERS. I'm so emotional. Ah.
As a girl with Tourette's, I would love to spread awareness and education about my disorder, as I feel it is quite misunderstood in today's society. The media has made it out to be a swearing disorder only, which is far from true. I hope this video will educate you on Tourette Syndrome and tic disorders! Life with Tourettes can be difficult, but just know that we're the same as everyone else...except for the fact we tic like clocks! (:
